Rouge 540 Limited Edition

Baccarat Rouge 540 Limited Edition is a highly polarizing, abstract fragrance that leans into cool, medicinal, and mineral-driven aromas. It opens with blood orange and citrus, creating a sharp, effervescent top note that quickly evolves into a richly layered composition dominated by hedione, saffron, lavender, and a dense woody base laced with ambergris and oakmoss. The scent is deeply aromatic and intensely present—so concentrated that it can feel overwhelming in close proximity. Some note it as resembling medical antiseptics or first-aid bandages, while others liken it to red velvet cake, crystalline heat, or abstracted crystal manufacturing. The aroma lingers with surprising tenacity, lasting well into the next day even when applied sparingly.
